    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

  • cw4emeryville Courtney Welch (@cw4emeryville) reported from Emeryville, California

    I never learned to type from Mavis Beacon programs, it was using AOL instant messenger everyday after school for an hour.

  • jjsignal JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

  • ghiamia73 melania’s motherboard (@ghiamia73) reported from Oakland, California

    @StephenGlahn @AOL And Capitol police didn’t do shit

  • ZachRoth Zach Roth | zachroth.eth (@ZachRoth) reported from San Francisco, California

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

  • SideEyePrincess Side-EyePrincess 😒👸🏾 (@SideEyePrincess) reported from San Bruno, California

    @AshleyGWinter Same. Never had MySpace or AOL.

  • greggferndale greggferndale (@greggferndale) reported from San Francisco, California

    @DevinCow 1. Never had AOL.

  • stevenredd stevenredd (@stevenredd) reported from San Francisco, California

    @Ky71Matt @notcapnamerica Hello! Of course I still have an AOL address! How am I supposed to sign up for porn sites I’m never going back to again?!?!

  • sunnyfbaby el sole, himself. (@sunnyfbaby) reported from Oakland, California

    @solesupremacy AOL -> chats -> Japan -> bay area a-z-ns lol. Damn im that old

  • mrjasonroy Jason Roy (@mrjasonroy) reported from San Francisco, California

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • SFnatives San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

  • espi espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, California

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

  • w00t John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

  • TenantsUpstairs Natasha Vo (@TenantsUpstairs) reported from San Francisco, California

    my first aol screen name was sk8rgrl91 so never had any doubt about it

  • yasSF Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • chrismessina Chris Messina (chrismessina@mastodon.xyz) (@chrismessina) reported from Oakland, California

    @seeminglee @xoxogossipgita Good point. Unfortunately Flickr is one of those internet brands that can probably never be sufficiently evolved without angering a core, vocal userbase, like still existing AOL customers.

  • pkellner pkellner (@pkellner) reported from San Francisco, California

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

  • Jujubee4me GraceFace (@Jujubee4me) reported

    @Thunderbolt210 They don’t know about chat room boyfriends/girlfriends. AOL was the ****.

  • ChinnyVision ChinnyVision - @chinnyvision@topspicy.social (@ChinnyVision) reported

    @CommodoreLad Might do. But this is a hell site anyway and I'm liking what I'm seeing over at the new place. Feels like the proper grown up internet like it used to be not a centralised pool of **** full of AOL'ers.

  • dcolbert dcolbert (@dcolbert) reported

    @TheQuartering The problem is, Twitter will always see itself as TWITTER, and so will the consumers. AOL *could* have been Facebook - if they had the idea, radically restructured and put developers on it. But at the end, named AOL, known as AOL, it would have just been AOL. Someone NEW had to

  • Brick_Tease 🧜‍♀️ (@Brick_Tease) reported

    Might I suggest AOL Chat Rooms/AIM if we’re throwing **** out there

  • DebtBeerSin Confessions from a Chemically Dependant Manwhore (@DebtBeerSin) reported

    @hornyjesusgrl It will never die. And if it does, we can all get AOL disks, download it and engage there

  • JayTayorJr Welldone (@JayTayorJr) reported

    @musicstruggles1 I worked in tech support for AOL. I remember one day being bored and looking up the screen name "Metallica". Traced it back using the billing software we had, it was "Metallica". So I sent them an IM. HAHHA, someone said hello back to me. I'm pretty sure it was Lars. HAHHAH

  • Mickey8255 Mickey (@Mickey8255) reported

    @CCVagina I was never on AOL?

  • JLNwrites Joanna Nelius (@JLNwrites) reported

    @rlviser Remember when AOL went down for like 16 hours back in the 90s? This sort of feels the same.

  • ElRobbo808 Rob M. (@ElRobbo808) reported

    @FedUpSarah well, the new trend is now #TwitterOFF so take some screenshots. That's what I did when AOL and Myspace shut down.

  • radhekicha Shivakumar M (@radhekicha) reported

    @NotDissociate @PSGangapure @SriSri I have serious doubts about AOL’s intentions. So may be we have a problem. For many of us in the east anything published in USA is suspect. We find western views about yoga etc amusing at best since you don’t know and cannot know anything about it except intellectually.
